Within the framework of the Seminar: MERCOSUR countries and their relation with Asian markets: strategies for the global integration, held on 12 November 2024, organized by UCU Business School, Department of Economy of FCS-UDELAR, and Programa Pharos de la ACADECO, a round table was held, which closed the Conference with a discussion about the most promising strategies for Uruguay and MERCOSUR in the Asian markets. This event counted on the participation of the Ambassador of China to Uruguay, Huang Yazhong, who provided a key diplomatic view in order to understand the commercial dynamics with Asia. The panelists concluded that a successful integration requires not only to negotiate trade agreements but also to develop institutional capacities and public policies which allow to maximize the benefits of these initiatives.
